What Do You Say Songtext

von Reba McEntire

Stuck at a red light outside an adult book store /
His son said, "Daddy, what are all those X's for" /
As the light turned green he changed the subject fast /
He started talkin' 'bout football as they drove right past /

Chorus :
What do you say in a moment like this /
When you can't find the words oh to tell it like it is /
Just bite your tongue and let your heart lead the way /
Let's get out of here oh what do you say /

Seventeen years old she was out with her friends /
They started drinkin' at some party 'til she was three sheets to the wind /
Her momma always told her she could call no matter what /
She was cryin' on the front steps when her mom showed up /

Chorus

Bridge : Sometimes you've got to listen to the silence /
And give yourself a little time to think /

Her every breath is weaker than the last /
And lately when she sleeps she talks about the past /
Her husband know's she's tired of holdin' on/
She looks at him and says I want to go home /

What do you say in a moment like this /
When you can't find the words to tell it like it is /
Just close your eyes and let your heart lead the way /
Oh what do you say /
